 We have to start somewhere to launch this jocular escapade and what better place to start than with the self appointed "canaries in the proverbial coal mine" who wish to believe that everyone is hanging on their every word of warning and solid advice to keep us on track to a better world...... or...a more pleasant time in the distant past.
